BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Now Shipping!
PlayStation®Network version available April 1 – Preorder it Today!

March 25, 2014 Torrance, CA – Aksys Games is pleased to announce that BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma, the 2D fighting game for the PlayStation®3 entertainment system, is now shipping to retailers and customers in North America and Canada!

Order today and get the Yuuki Terumi Launch Bonus DLC found in the first print run of the game, for both standard and limited editions.

BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma is the latest installment of the acclaimed BlazBlue series. With the Cauldron shattered and the cycle broken, Ragna the Bloodedge begins his final mission: Hunt down the villainous Yuuki Terumi. BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma features a new fighting system, new characters, and network mode upgrades.

New Fighting System – BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma implements a new fighting system called “Overdrive.” Each character has a unique “Overdrive” that when used, will power up the character. To make things more interesting, the “Overdrive” system becomes stronger as your health depletes, meaning that players can turn the tide of the battle easily.

New Faces – BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma adds seven new characters (four in-game, one unlockable, and two DLC) to the roster! From the elegant yet deadly Amane Nishiki to the brute Azrael, each of these characters are ready for you to master.

New DLC – Immediately available for purchase is Kokonoe, the mad scientist who uses her large arsenal of weapons to fight. Yuuki Terumi will be available on May 27, 2014.

The gamestop in my area had their shipment of BB delayed. I was hoping to use my day off to train and beat the story mode. I really want to know Noel’s true origins and who the Imperator is.

Oddly enough, same here, sadly. I really, REALLY want my LE ASAP to be in tomorrow, just so I can start on the tutorial (which allows to pick the teacher if I’m not mistaken), as well as the story… but I also have a good feeling that the story will further cement my hatred for Terumi and Relius. Also, can’t wait to see more Teach Me, Ms. Litchi! episodes.

Man I hate Terumi so much. I think everyone does. Have you watched the anime? He’s such a prick!
